I used Soft Stone ink to randomly stamp my background, and then cut off a portion of it and mounted it to a Soft Stone card base, with another cut 2/3 of the way down to leave an open area for my sentiment (Keep It Simple: Birthday). Next I used the swirl image and embossed it with clear embossing powder on a piece of white cardstock, and then blended Raspberry Fizz and Orange Zest inks over the swirl. After fussy cutting this image out, I pop dotted it to the card, added some hot pink bakers twine, and a few rainstones, to finish off my card.

This is so pretty Marcia! Love the pop of pink and orange against the soft grey backdrop.
I was hoping someone would use this stamp set for their project! Your card looks amazing with the swirl popped up like that.
That stamp makes a great background, fun card!
Love that you showcased the swirl as your pop of color! So beautiful!
Not only do you have a pop of color, the words on the swirls image is genius. Love your card.
So pretty Marcia. Love you sponged flower.
This is awesome Marcia! I love the swirly sentiment! I almost added them to my cart but decided to be good instead. Now I wish I had gotten them. Love your card - dear friend!
What a fun card Marcia! I did not get this set but I really like what you created. Orange and pink inks are one of my favorite colors to blend.
That swirl sentiment is a perfect image for this technique! So beautiful, Marcia! The split for the sentiment is a great detail too.
Lovely background, Marcia! The pink and orange inks look gorgeous against the neutrals!!
Beautiful!! I love the design you used to isolate your sentiment too! Sweet card and great coloring.

Lovely card. That Birthday Script Swirls is really a great stamp. The embossing with the raspberry fizz and orange zest look great as your isolation focal point.
Oh how pretty is this, Marcia. What a great design idea!
Marcia, your pink and orange blended Script Swirls really look awesome with the Soft Stone. The split for your sentiment adds so much to the design. Love this card!
Awesome card, Marcia! Your ink blending is beautifully done. I thought of using Script Swirls for this challenge, but then I realized that some fussy cutting might be involved :) You're so brave!
I like the way you have the sentiment peeking through~lovely pop of color too!
love the swirly design on this stamp and how you've matched your twine to the ink blended, popped sentiment
I wondered if I should get the Script Swirls & you're making me put it on my wishlist, Marcia! Your card is just wonderful!
Wonderful stamp, and wonderful design! Marcia, your sweet card is a beauty! Look at your ink blending! Gorgeous!
